Lookin for NTNP buddy. Just need to CHAT!

OMG just be strong and don't let her affect u that bad. Some people are like that only. U just be yourself. Try to space out from her. I know its hard as she is the MIL and she will be there near you at occasions. My MIL and FIL are so good to me. But when we visit them, sometimes I feel DH gets so inclined to them and doesn't miss me at all. But I think its natural as DH gets to see them once in every two years. They stay so far.

Red: So sorry dear. :hugs:
 
Hey ladies I just got myself some opk, hpt and a bbt. :)
Not gonna use opk this month. Just stocking them. They make me so happy, these tests. Will start doing opk from September if DH says yes then. :wacko:
 
I'm really not bothered. Hubby told me that once we're financially stabilised (he started a new job 2 weeks ago) we'll properly TTC. Or in his words "we'll give it a proper go". So in about 4 weeks.

Tell your MIL to butt her nose out. Won't go down well but it works, lol!
 
Thanks ladies, I wish I could but it'd be more hassle than its worth! She'd go off and do a runner for a few hours and Simon would go running when she got back. Just nipped to get some painkillers, got super strong cramps, and he's sat there on the sofa watching tele, eugh!

Fairy I wish we only saw my MiL every 2years! Lol

Yay for purchases fairy :D you'll have to put a link to your chart in your sig!

Red that's good hun :)

I know AF will be here when I get up, as I mentioned just, got strong AF cramps and a lil bit more spotting, time for sleep me thinks! Xxx
 
Hi ladies! Still no word on my blood results for HCG, so I guess I won't get a call til Friday since tomorrow is the 4th :( But I called for the OB and they scheduled me an appointment for July 23rd. So far away!! :( They said they wanted to wait til I was at least 8 weeks. They said I'll be getting a call about genetics and things that run in the family and I will also be getting more blood work for hepatitis, HIV, etc. I hate needles :(
 
Happy July 4th weekend to everyone. Hope u all enjoy and have fun. :)
 
Mel it all becomes a waiting game now! And you do turn into somewhat of a pin cushion but it's all more than worth it! Keep us updated!

Happy 4th July ladies! Have fab weekends :)

AF still a no show so tested and BFN as I thought. Still waiting
 
Hi ladies! sorry i've not been about, my phones broken atm so can only get on when i use the computer!
Just read loads and can't remember all of it.. so bare with me lol and sorry if i miss anything!

Laura, sucks that you're still wait for AF with a bfn :( what cd you on and how long are your cycles normally?? and i'm so sorry to hear about how horrid your MIL is! my other half turns in to a little boy when we go see his parents (every fudging sunday!!) i hate it!!!!!!!! they infuriate me and so does he when we're round there! keep your chin up, you're doing the right thing, stand your ground and just stay strong for the little lad :)

Red, sorry AF hit :( on to the next cycle we goooo! So are you NTNP until then? Are you temping? Sorry i've read so much i'm forgetting whos doing what now lol

Fairry, haha i was thinking of stocking up on some hpt but think i'll wait until i get the official go go go from the fiance... i so hope he agrees to officially ttc! Are you temping this cycle too? just not using opks?

Mel, how rubbissshhh you didnt get your call yet! looking forward to hearing your update tomorrow! how are you feeling? july 23rd is a way off yet but hoping it flys by for you! :) so exciting!! :happydance:

As for me, i'm actually surprised, usually like a few of you guys my period is like the floodgates have opened lol but this month its a pleasant steady flow which i don't mind haha! This is what they were like before baby but since then it's been horrific how heavy i've been! so hoping theyve gone somewhat back to normal now! bar the cycle length! :growlmad: I want my 28 day cycle back!!! Theyre just so irregular now its hard to judge anything!! Hopefully my charting will help out this cycle! I'm surprised ive remembered to temp every morning!

Mrsc, you still about?? Hope you're ok hun and not suffering too much with AF :(
 
Red that sucks :(

Thanks ica hunni, been really shitty with Simon today! He texts on his breaks and has gotten literally one or two word answers! He knows why I'm pissed with him though! Sorry your OH turns into a tit! And they wonder why we don't wanna visit their folks! :dohh:

Glad your period has settled back down hun, hopefully you'll get a BfP this cycle though so won't need to worry about length :thumbup: you should get a link to your chart in your sig hun :)

Still no AF here, she's normally here first thing so looks like this cycle is a day longer than the last which was a day longer than the one before that! CD38 today! Cramps and loads of EWCM with a hint of pink. Bored of waiting! Also I need to pop out and buy some ingredients for the cake I'm making today, made one layer, was hoping to cut it in half to fill it buts gonna be too thin, I think, but Oscar's sleeping and don't wanna disturb him! Argh! Do I cut it and hope once it's filled it's ok or wait till he wakes, nip and get stuff and make another layer?! Xx
 
Yup, I'm temping. Still have 13 OPKs left but don't know if I can be bothered to use them though. And still NTNP.

Why is it men turn into right twats around their mothers?! I can't stand my MIL but she loves me too pieces. And it's so annoying!

Does Oscar sleep for long? If not, I'd wait it out then you know the cake will be thick enough.
 
Don't blame ya with the OPk's hun, they don't work for me at all! Temping all the way haha

You summed it up perfectly! Lol I feel your frustration!

Somedays upto 2hours! Lol he's just waking though, I'm sat here with the sling already on so I can change his nappy, strap him in and run upto the shop! Lol xx
 
Hey ladies. Been working a lot past few days, sorry i haven't been on much. Just read like 2 pages of updates so gonna try to reply to all. Sorry if I miss someone!

Fairyy- oh! Ur gonna be charting? Let me know how it goes for you, 50/50 on the idea for myself.

Red- sorry AF got you! Heavy periods suck! Do you have awful cramping too?

Laura- wedding planning should be fun, but tbh mine was not all the wonderful either. In my situation, it was MY mother that was beyond controlling and mad that she thought she was losing one of her babies. Believe it or not, she made the biggest fuss about the dresses that her and my MIL would be wearing cuz at the time my mom was very overweight and my MIL is quite slim. They both had beautiful dresses but my mom wanted hers to DB nicer cuz she the mother of the bride... Well MIL is mother of the groom the other just as important party in the wedding :dohh: so many tears over darn dresses!
IMO you should tell her to back off. She is not the one getting married, you and your OH are! Unless she is solely paying for the wedding you do not even have to discuss your decisions with her and if she is behaving like that, should not be discussing them with her IMO. And even if she IS paying for it, that is to be a GIFT to you two to make it a day YOU TWO want it to be, not for her to live vicariously thru.
You're OH is yours, you become one and that is that, boundaries need of be drawn now so as not to negatively affect your marriage and all the relationships with you sweet son. Seems times drawing boundary lines are worth a few days of havoc to make some peace for the long run. Let us know how everything goes. And no matter what the wedding turns out like, if u r marrying your best friend and father of your child, that is all you need to remember. The two of you in love vowing yourselves to one another thru everything!!

Ica- so glad it's getting back to normal for you. I hope it stays that way... Unless of course she goes away completely to let a little bean nest in there for a while! Hehe

Mel- I was curious when an OB would see you. Not sure how it works, so 8 weeks... Feels like a long time after first finding out! I'm looking forward to your update after that appt dear!

Noodles- glad to see you back... There sure is a lot going on here, though unfortunately, most of us have gotten BFNs and AF. but... There is always next month.

Afm- cramps have finally tapered off and I'm feeling better. Still a heavy flow, which should slow down tomorrow. And I actually don't feel angry anymore lol. Period pains and emotions always get me either sobbing or really mad the first 2 days. Glad that's over lol

Happy July 4th to everyone! We will hopefully go see fireworks or do something. Maybe we will drop by to see my dad- mom is away for a convention in TN and visiting her family there for about 3 weeks, so my dad is stuck home alone with my 2 younger siblings and my older sister moving back in next week. I'm sure he could use some company from his "favorite" child :winkwink: and hubby and i have like no friends...haha plus dad's got a fire pit. I'm thinkin s'mores!!! Lol

Anyone have any fun plans for today?
 
Glad you're feeling better hunni :)

Thank you for your wise words, I wish you ladies could meet my MiL! Lol if I say something she will flip, hold a grudge, possibly walk out for an hour or two, sulk, not speak for a week, put shit on FB then turn up on my doorstep crying. Sounds harmless but it upsets Simon so much and I don't want him to not have his mum around, my dad lost his mum (she took her own life) when I was 9months old and we all still cry about it, I know how it's affected my dad and I don't want that for Oscar's daddy :nope: I'm hoping once the wedding is done we won't have these dramas anymore. At the end of the like you said it's abou me and Simon and Oscar :) xxx
 
Oh today's plans, baking a maltesers box style cake for a friends mum's birthday and playing with my boy :) I might speak to Simon, might not! Lol xx
 
Red- u r so lucky... Usually my cramps are gone by now... But just got some real bad ones. My lower back has been hurting a lot with this one- usually it's just typical cramps but I can barely stand up straight when it hits me this time, ugh...

Still really wish we could NTNP... hubby seems to still wanna pull out... And it's worked for 5 months off the pill- and this last cycle he even forgot once during fertile time and im not pregnant so I just feel like it'll be a long time. But we are so broke right now idk how it would even work anyway... Altho I know it would. *sigh*
 
I love that you said 'god always provides' this sums my life up perfectly <3

God always does provide! Story of my life too :thumbup:

And I love that you just reiterated that, been having a very difficult week. Hubby is out of work with no pay for the whole week and its stressing me out, but being reminded God provides is just what I needed. So thank you. And welcome to the thread! Blessings and baby dust! :flower::dust::flower:
 
mrsc we are broke too! we already have one and are TTc another, money doesnt stop us as we always find a way :) Plus if we waited til we 'can afford kids' we'd never have any! their smiles and giggles are worth so much more than any amount of money ever could be <3

sorry you're back's playing up with this AF :( how long does she normally stay for? xxx
